How do you throw anything from a bus? (current vehicles have no opening windows, Shirley?)

(For our non-English members, Shirley is a pun on surely)

The story is different on the BBC Scotland teletext -

It says the woman and the boy were sitting on the lower deck of the bus and as it passed under a bridge two youths threw a brick at the bus smashing the window and brick hit the boy.

It's sad cases that do these things.
